Anyone else sick of this guy? Maybe I'm the only one who can not stand him.
Oh well, Cubs blasting the Mets 7-1 in the 9th.

I like how he got ousted as Mets General Manager and he sits in front of a camera and critiques moves made in baseball. If he knew what he was talking about, I'm pretty sure he wouldn't have gotten canned by the Mets. I don't like him. Not to get on a tangent either but I hate Jim Nantz. I hate how he turns every game, golf tournament, or whatever into a Cinderella story. He always hypes up the team or individual that won and tells some sob story about how they overcame adversity.

He is either VERY obvious or sits talking about what he did with the Mets. Pretty sure everyone thought he was a joke with the Mets. Arrogant and annoying.

He is like too many of the talking heads, he was fired as GM of the Mets for doing a bad job and now he's an "expert" on all things baseball. I love when he talks about what teams should do to win. He couldn't do it himself so now he tells others how to.

Arrogant and annoying. When he was GM of the Mets his team may not have had the best record, but he was responsible for drafting David Wright and Jose Reyes. Not a bad job there.

Where is Rick Sutcliffe and Harold Reynolds. That bunch they had on ESPN tonight was pathetic. Just talking heads.

Rick Sutcliffe has cancer, and Harold Reynolds was dismissed because of allegations of sexual harassment.
I think Orel does a pretty good job.

Phillips is terrible... Orel is great and I wouldn't be suprised at all to see him get a GM job someday soon. He really breaks down all aspects of the game, mental and physical. Kruk is good for a little humor... Eduardo Perez is starting to grow on me, even if he is a former Seminole...
HR now has a show on MLB.com.

Could be worse, could have been Joe Morgan.

Reyes is such a talent I could have picked him out.

Phillips thinks that he is smarter than everyone. He doesn't seem very likeable.
I hope Sutcliffe can make a full recovery. I would like to see him replacing BB some day for the Cubs.
